Protective effect of non-mitogenic human acidic fibroblast growth factor from renal ischemia-reperfusion injury* / 中国病理生理杂志

ABSTRACT

AIM:To investigate the effect of non-mitogenic human acidic fibroblast growth factor(nm-haFGF)on renal ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats.METHODS:Rat renal ischemia-reperfusion(I/R)injury was produced by removing the left kidney and subsequently clamping the right renal artery for 60 min followed by reperfusion for 24 h.5 min after reperfusion.different doses of nm-haFGF and haFGF(as positive control)were injected by lingual vein.24 h later,the samples of blood,urine and kidney were collected and the contents of malondialdehyde(MDA),blood urea nitrogen(BUN),creatinine(Cr)and superoxide dismutase(SOD)activity were detected.Histopathological changes were also observed.RESULTS:In the serum,SOD activity of all the nm-haFGF groups and the haFGF group increased significantly while the content of MDA decreased dramatically compared with the model group;The content of BUN and Cr aland haFGF group rose significantly compared with the model group,while MDA decreased dramatically.Histological examination showed that nm-haFGF markedly attenuates the renal edema,brush border's defluvium and cell necrosis induced by ischemia-reperfusion.CONCLUSION:nm-haFDF could resist the renal injury induced by ischemia-reperfusion in rats.
